The rich history of Catholic history and social teaching takes center stage in this latest volume collecting stories from the pages of George Pflaum's comic book series, Treasure Chest of Fun & Fact, which was distributed to Catholic schoolchildren for more than 25 years starting in the1940s.

These include a perhaps-unexpected array of considerations of issues ranging from labor concerns to racism, religious freedom to war, many far ahead of their time in prioritizing matters that would only come to the fore in later years.

Eine Graphic Novel über rebellische Jugendliche in der DDR Dirk, Heiko, Raik und Andreas wachsen in Halle (Saale) auf, einer von Verfall und Umweltverschmutzung gezeichneten Stadt. Schon als Schüler reiben sie sich Ende der 1970er-Jahre an den Verhältnissen in der DDR, lehnen sich auf gegen Indoktrinierung und Willkür. Nachdem sie die Wahlen boykottiert und den Wehrdienst verweigert haben, sehen sie die einzige Perspektive darin, ihre »ständige Ausreise« zu beantragen. Was sie später im Revolutionsjahr 1989, kurz vor dem Mauerfall, in West-Berlin erleben werden, wird in der 2018 erschienenen, ebenfalls autobiografischen Graphic Novel »Todesstreifen« erzählt. In Kooperation mit der Stiftung Berliner Mauer

In the opening installment of "The Chronicles of Alarion," we are introduced to Alarion, a seemingly ordinary young man living in the mundane world. Alarion's life takes a dramatic turn when he stumbles upon a mysterious and ornate key - the Key of Kallindor. This key, with its intricate and mystical design, is far from ordinary. It carries with it the power to unlock a hidden portal into a world of magic and wonder. As Alarion unwittingly turns the key, he is transported into a realm unknown to most mortals. This is a place where magic flows like a river, mythical creatures roam, and the very air crackles with enchantment. Alarion's introduction to this magical world is marked by both awe and trepidation. Soon, he realizes that the Key of Kallindor is not merely a portal opener; it is a powerful artifact that holds the secrets of this realm.

Roman illustré Dès les premières pages, le lecteur est happé dans un univers apocalyptique où une invasion de méduses mutants menace l'existence même de l'humanité. Par touches successives, l'intrigue gagne en ampleur épique à mesure que le mystère s'épaissit. D'où viennent ces créatures venues des abysses ? Quel est ce virus mortel qu'elles propagent ? Avec un sens du suspense consommé, l'auteur distille ses révélations au compte-gouttes, garantissant un rythme haletant de bout en bout. Chaque nouveau rebondissement apporte son lot de surprises dans ce scénario catastrophe machiavéliquement dosé. Mais derrière l'aspect trépidant du récit perce une réflexion troublante sur le devenir de notre civilisation. Car cette invasion venue de la mer n'est rien d'autre qu'une allégorie des dangers qui guettent l'humanité, qu'il s'agisse du dérèglement climatique, des pandémies ou de la folie autodestructrice des hommes. Ainsi, le romancier sonde avec acuité les grandeurs et les misères de la nature humaine. Qu'advient-il de nos valeurs lorsque nous sommes acculés ? Sommes-nous capables de sacrifier notre intérêt individuel au profit du bien commun ? Autant de questions vertigineuses soulevées avec une perspicacité fascinante. Sur le plan formel, cette uchronie impressionne par sa maîtrise technique. L'auteur jongle avec virtuosité entre anticipations scientifiques d'une précision confondante et envolées lyriques dignes de Virgile. Le lecteur se laisse emporter, émerveillé, à travers cette odyssée futuriste truffée de visions oniriques. A n'en pas douter, avec ce roman visionnaire, Francisco Angulo s'inscrit dignement dans les traces de Jules Verne et des grands auteurs d'anticipation. Mais ce classicisme apparent dissimule en réalité une réflexion d'une modernité et d'une profondeur saisissantes. Penchons-nous plus en détails sur les différents aspects qui font la force et l'originalité de cette ¿uvre magistrale. Tout d'abord, le cadre uchronique choisi par l'auteur n'est pas sans rappeler certains grands classiques du genre, à commencer par le roman fondateur de Verne "Vingt mille lieues sous les mers". Comme le Nautilus du Capitaine Nemo, le vaisseau Hesperides sert ici de décor à une odyssée futuriste pleine de rebondissements. Angulo parvient à recréer la même atmosphère étouffante et mystérieuse qui prévalait à bord du sous-marin de Verne.
